Question

I have this step definition:

Given /^I am not logged in$/ do
  visit '/users/sign_out'
end

And rake routes gives me this:

destroy_user_session DELETE /users/sign_out(.:format)      devise/sessions#destroy

So.. How would I test this? Is there any way I can add the HTTP method in Capybara?

I say this because I keep getting this error in my tests:

 No route matches [GET] "/users/sign_out" (ActionController::RoutingError)

Change:

config.sign_out_via = :delete

for

config.sign_out_via = Rails.env.test? ? :get : :delete

in config/initializers/devise.rb

As explained in Rails-Devise-Rspec-Cucumber tutorial, by doing so, you are going to make Devise to do GET requests for sign out actions. And this is just going to happen in test environments…
